Default Budget lift kit

See they have bb lift kits, are they any good, I'm mostly commuting with occasional off roading in my 04 4.7 v8 overland. Iv seen people talking about these bb lift kits. I tried searching the forum but I always get an error message. Anyone have experience with these? Pictures would be great. I only want a 2-3 in lift max.
